Six years ago, my Facebook showed
My children posed with their beaks exposed
We were at the park on a sunny day
Back then like the parks and play
That was years ago
It is different now
They seldom go with me somehow
I'm getting old but I still should move
Not to play in the park but to the gym, I could . . .
Alone I go, as my teens are slow
Not slow in general, but in the morning? Oh no,
They can't get up as their limbs are tied
They can't get up as their limbs are tied
To the bed, they are, but not at night
I miss my kids when they were young
Back then they followed, danced with me, and sung
How I cope is just to remember the old
And walk with a book with encouraging words
I borrowed this book Operation Happiness
It is full of tips, just sweetness no nastiness
I do this as I can't watch or read the news
Without reading something that gives a boost
Last weekend we went to an auto show
I didn't buy anything as I've got no dough
But for fun, we posed with some nice cars
Ferrari, Mercedes, Audi, and Jaguar
My daughter went with us, though a little bored
It's a blessing the place has a charging station aboard
They must have kept the children's parents in mind
To keep everyone happy, the techy kinds
I've got another picture from years ago
It's me and Paul with our Easter eggos
In that picture, I wore my wig because
At that time I was bald from cancer and chemo
But look at me now with a head full of hair
As I'm enjoying my green smoothie to nourish my body
It took cancer for me to really watch my food
I'm afraid it'd come back so kale I drink and chew
Oh look, my daughter got up for a hike with me
Though it was close to dark, and we had to turn back
We should have started earlier
Like in the morning perhaps
Oh look, my daughter got up for a hike with me
Though it was close to dark, and we had to turn back
We should have started earlier
Like in the morning perhaps
Lastly, I want to thank my Filipino-American group
For teaching Tagalog class, something I couldn't
I do not have the patience of teaching my language
So my daughter enrolled in the lessons she craved
